The control room is the beating heart of the production process. The visualization equipment used in this process control center therefore needs to be reliable, provide a high image quality, and improve operator efficiency. This goes for all parameters of industrial control, including sensor data and camera feeds, in real-time and in a flexible way.
Monitoring and controlling all critical assets of the production process, requires a stable cooperation between professional operators and best-in-class visualization and media management systems. Whether using a distributed control system with a remote control room, or a system with centralized controllers, the man-machine cooperation is critical. With a track record of many years in control room and production control solutions, Barco can offer the right solutions to equip your process control center, and provide a situational overview at any time. The ease-of-use of these systems will enable your staff to focus on the process, not on the technicalities.
The innovative, network-centric design, open interfacing and industry compliance of our control room platform Barco CTRL, ensures simplicity, scalability and security. The system allows for new technology insertion whenever needed. Interfaces with many leading 3rd party systems and compatibility with a large number of AV & ICT source types make sure that you can build your infrastructure with the best components available in the market. Last but not least, security is embedded, as is expected for critical infrastructure architectures.
As one of the few manufacturers that offers all of the dominant video wall technologies (LCD, direct-view LED and rear-projection cubes), we can answer all application needs with the perfect solution - without being restricted by the portfolio. Process control centers often mix static process content with live video footage. This requires specific solutions, which are all available within our product range. By using the best-in-class available materials, combined with a high level of redundancy of critical components, Barco video walls ensure the best uptime in the market.
The manufacturing sector often needs additional control room functionalities than traditional monitoring the production process. (Cyber)security applications, for example, or a crisis room for in-depth communication and decision-making between various stakeholders (including the control room, C-level management, and external experts). Also for these applications Barco has dedicated solutions in its portfolio.
